FWIW, we do not have any of the commercial services, available
for free, on campus.  I did wonder, after seeing these stats,
if we had noticed any change.  I can't post our numbers, but,
while they are lower than these they have also been remarkably
consistent over the last three years.

Perhaps that's of value, as a point of comparison.
